I truly believe the Canucks are going to get clowned for moving him, like Chicago and Panarin. But it's just super unlikely to work here. It sucks, because he's a personality and the talent is there but he just isn't able to do what Tocchet wants him to do. I'd make the case that this isn't Kuzmenko's skill set and as a coach it's your job to find a way to make it work with a talented player but it's impossible to argue with his results with the rest of line up.

It's slim pickings. Not sure how the org feels about Raty but they didn't draft him so maybe he's a possibility.
Or how about Hunter Brzustewicz
Hunter is in that "Non-pro prospect" umbrella. It's gonna be Podkolzin I think.

In going through this with Horvat and Miller over the last two years, you learn very quickly that it's not about finding the "best" trading partner, but the trading partner willing to pay your price.
